Introduction
Greetings!
I'm an epidemiologist (one of those)
studying how changes in enviroment influence health
outcomes over the life course. In the context of global health, I am
interested in mitigating adverse effects of exposure to dual (or multi) burden
of malnutrition on
non-communicable disease development.
In my spare time, I enjoy bike touring and hiking as well as
cooking and solving escape rooms.
I'll be updating this site over the next few months, so stay tuned!
